Luxury Carmel Retreat • Minutes to Pebble Beach • Putting Green

Summary:

Recently renovated in 2023/2025, this peaceful Carmel retreat combines luxury, comfort, and beautiful Santa Lucia Mountain views just minutes from downtown Carmel. Designed for relaxing indoor-outdoor living, the home features an expansive covered patio, outdoor kitchen, putting green, and tranquil garden spaces perfect for gathering with family and friends.



The Space:

This fully renovated Carmel home combines classic Carmel charm with modern updates and thoughtfully designed spaces for relaxing, gathering, and enjoying time together.



The home features comfortable indoor and outdoor living areas, with a covered patio offering beautiful mountain views, a dining area for 10, and a well-equipped outdoor kitchen with a grill, side burner, refrigerator, and ice maker. A 75-inch television provides the perfect setting for enjoying a game or movie outdoors, while a separate seating area offers a peaceful place to unwind and take in the views.



Inside, the gourmet kitchen features bar seating for five and is complemented by a separate dining room with comfortable seating for eight. Throughout the home, you’ll find cozy nooks and inviting spaces—both indoors and out—perfect for reading, enjoying a quiet cup of coffee, or simply taking a moment to relax.



For golfers, families, and kids, the property also offers a putting green, cornhole, and other lawn games. Three outdoor ceiling heaters provide added comfort for enjoying the patio on cool Carmel evenings.



To help preserve the peaceful atmosphere of the neighborhood, parties and gatherings of more than 10 people are NOT permitted. Please also be aware that Monterey County’s nighttime noise ordinance requires quiet hours from 9 PM to 7 AM. During these hours, guests are expected to keep noise at a respectful level consistent with the ordinance and the quiet residential character of the neighborhood.



All four bedrooms feature new mattresses, luxury linens, televisions, and strong high-speed Wi-Fi. Two bedrooms open directly onto a peaceful Zen garden, creating a tranquil retreat for morning coffee or tea and a relaxing spot to enjoy an evening glass of wine.



The living and dining areas showcase classic Carmel-style ceilings, hardwood floors, and a wood-burning fireplace that adds warmth and character. Guests staying in the primary suite can enjoy the soothing sound of the outdoor water fountain simply by opening the windows.



We love welcoming well-behaved furry family members! Please contact us before booking for pet approval. A pet fee applies, and most stays are limited to one dog unless otherwise approved.



Cameras & Noise Monitoring

For the safety and protection of the property, exterior security cameras are located at:



Front door

Side of the house overlooking the secondary parking area

Exterior area facing the gate

Garage/Front parking area



We also use exterior noise-monitoring devices. These devices do not record conversations or sounds. They monitor noise levels and may alert us if there is excessive barking or unusually loud activity.



We follow Monterey County’s nighttime noise ordinance, which requires quiet hours from 9 PM to 7 AM.



During those nighttime hours, a sound can qualify as loud and unreasonable if it is:



Plainly audible at 50 feet or more from the source; or



The ordinance establishes nighttime standards of:



45 dBA Leq — hourly equivalent sound level

65 dBA maximum — maximum sound level

We provide a decibel reader i located on the porch with a digital display, so you can clearly see what your decibel reading is.



Guest Access:

Guests will have access to the entire home and outdoor living spaces, with the exception of the owner’s closet located in the garage.



Maximum of 4 vehicles are permitted on the property. Additional vehicles require prior approval. Street parking on N. Mesa Drive is not allowed



The Neighborhood:

Located just minutes from downtown Carmel, the home offers a peaceful residential setting while still being close to restaurants, shopping, beaches, golf courses, and wine tasting.



The neighborhood is primarily made up of full-time residents, creating a quiet and relaxing atmosphere that feels tucked away while remaining conveniently located near everything Carmel has to offer.



Getting Around:

Downtown Carmel is just a quick 2-minute drive or approximately a 10–15 minute walk away. The entrance to Carmel Valley is also conveniently located about 2.5 miles from the home.



The property offers ample parking, including space large enough for two SUVs or a Sprinter van. A Tesla charger is also available in the garage for guest use.



We added this parking because there is no parking on N Mesa Drive.



Other Things to Note:

This house used to be my private residence and I would be happy to provide recommendations for restaurants, wineries, beaches, golf, hiking, shopping, and local favorites to help you make the most of your stay.



Whether you’re relaxing on the patio, practicing your putting, or enjoying the peaceful Carmel evenings by the fire pit, this home was designed to create a truly tranquil coastal getaway.



Interaction with Guests:

We self-manage the home to provide guests with a more personalized experience and quick communication throughout their stay. Guests will receive a private key code prior to arrival for easy self check-in, and we are always available by call or text to help with any questions, recommendations, or concerns.

This was such an amazing home for a family gathering. My family and I are outdoors people and the open floor plan from the kitchen to the outdoors was amazing. Also, the sliding wall between the kitchen and the patio were incredibly soundproof, so we were able to accommodate a couple with a baby and their earlier bedtime without losing our ability to stay up later listening to music for the rest of us. Absolutely perfect!

Great base to explore Carmel

We really enjoyed staying at this house. It was the perfect place to explore Carmel with our dogs. The property was extremely dog friendly and there is a great park within walking distance to take the dogs, along with leash free beaches a 30 minute walk away. The house is very cute and comfortable and was well equipped. We have family in the area and would definitely stay here again.

Great for family and dogs

The large fenced-in yard made it so easy and safe to let the dogs out before heading off on walks or to the beach. The large living room was great for all 6 of us to hang out, eat, or play games. During the unprecedented rains of the previous weeks, the sump pump running constantly at night was noisy for sleeping.

Family get away

We really enjoyed staying at Penny’s house for a family trip to Carmel. The house looks just as advertised with updates throughout the entire house. The 3 bedrooms are quite spacious and the house was very clean when we arrived. The kitchen is well equipped and we were able to cook most of our meals while staying there. The fenced backyard was wonderful. We were traveling with our 2 dogs who really enjoyed the large space to play in. The flowers are beautiful. We enjoyed sitting on the back deck in the mornings eating breakfast under the umbrella.

This property is very close to town and was an ideal home for our annual girls weekend. The outdoor space is gorgeous and super inviting. They made it easy to be comfortable with overhead gas heaters and several areas to lounge or dine. The home is nicely stocked and very clean. We had some minor issues with lighting and windows. New construction always has some kinks to be ironed out. My only suggestion would be to add some seating to the inside space. If you don't want to be outdoors, there isn't the same amount of seating indoors. But, we loved being on the patio and will definitely book again when back in Carmel. Beautiful spot and highly recommend.

Exquisite Large and Modern Home With Plenty of Backyard Space!

Staying in this home was truly so special! There are endless areas to hangout between the living room, dining area, kitchen, a second dining area, barstools, and outdoor space. It's so comfortable, well decorated, and instantly felt like a vacation upon arriving. The only arena I would square away ahead of time is the schedule of the yard maintenance. While my group was outside on the deck, the leaf-blower came. I was not notified ahead of time, so we had to come in until they were done. We were having a BBQ for my mom's birthday the following day thank goodness, so it was no problem. There seemed to be a bit of confusion of the yard schedule, but this is an easy thing to plan for ahead of time once the owners have the updated schedule. If you're wanting to plan a day on the deck in the backyard I would just ask ahead of time to plan accordingly. I would absolutely stay here again, and plan to.
